Legal-Link Barcelona

WHLS has been twinned with the Barcelona Bar for a number of years. In 2019 the International Committee arranged a highly successful visit by the Barcelona Bar Association to London. This a return visit where members of WHLS are invited. Once a place is confirmed, each member arranges their own travel/accommodation and pays their own expenses. All members of the Society may apply. Please send your request to join to cwhlawsoc@gmail.com. The details of the visit are below and of course we hope to have some enjoyable socialising during the trip.
